I asked them in 10/2005 and the price for Gnat Pro was 14000ￜ for
Windows and another 7000ￜ if I wanted Linux too. GtkAda was an
additional 7000ￜ. Then I could get 2 additional packages (compiler for
another target, Glade, AWS, ...) at no additional cost. That is for 5
developers, but if we don't have 5 developers, that's out fault.

So the minimal cost for the first year for Windows + Linux + GtkAda is
28000ￜ.

I told them that I would be ok with less than stellar support, like any
other Visual C++ or Delphi customer gets, if I could get the packages
for a more Microsoft- or Borland-like price. They told me their
support is far better than Microsoft's or Borland's. That's it.
